How to pull back but not out

[deathstarmemo]

I've become way too needy with my bf. I know he loves me but I love him too much for the stage we're at. It's been 14 months but a slow burner as we don't see eachother much, he works away in the week. How do I pull back some of this dependence on him without making it obvious or causing tension? He's been a great support to me through tough times. I'm resilient and was independent, I work full time and see friends. I do feel a bit insecure. How do I build back up myself and keep a healthier balance?

What does 'too needy' look like? Is it him who said this or something you think?

Depends really, sometimes a relationship just doesn't and never will be the right thing for us. Not because you're 'too' anything but because what they want isn't what you want.

If you feel like you want more independence, the usual stuff? Fill your time. Hobbies. Activities. List the pros.
